I have a 98 S70 N.A. and lately I have noticed that when first started, the idle is a little rough...once I start driving, it clears up and is fine. Any thoughts on what I should start looking at? Air filter is new, flame trap has been cleaned out. Did the plugs, cap & rotor about 10K miles ago (1 year). It has 96K on it. Thanks!

    In my experience, just because 'it's been done' even if it is BRAND NEW, do not count it as not being the problem. I've seen plenty of DOA parts, and parts that die earlier than you expect, that includes wires and plugs. Does it idle ok afterwards after it's already warmed up?
